German Pancakes

We've had German pancakes just a handful of times at family breakfasts when we used to live in Utah, and thought they were fantastic. Jeff's sister-in-law raved about how simple they were to make and how much her kids loved them. For some reason we didn't try making them ourselves until just a few weeks ago...and we are hooked! They literally take 3 minutes to put together and 20 minutes to bake in the oven. And there's no butter or sugar...so its a basic foundation that you can serve with whatever fits your fancy. We like to top ours with blueberries, strawberries, sautéed apples with cinnamon, sliced almonds, maple syrup or applesauce. This recipe makes one 9x13 pan and if we must confess...the four of us can eat it all in one sitting. We'll give the kids most of the credit for that one. 


Ingredients:
  • 6 large eggs 
  • 1 cup [whole wheat or white] flour 
  • 1 cup low-fat milk (we use 1%) 
  • 1/2 tsp salt 
  • non-stick cooking spray or oil to coat pan 
  • Toppings: blueberries, strawberries, sautéed apples with cinnamon, sliced almonds, maple syrup or applesauce

Directions:



  • Preheat oven to 400°. Place first four ingredients in a blender; process just until smooth.
  • Pour batter into greased 9x13 baking dish 
  • Bake uncovered until puffy and golden brown, about 20 minutes 
  • Remove from oven, serve hot with toppings of choice
